UNSPSC 50344904: Frozen arctic star nectarines

The variety of nectarines known as arctic star nectarines that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50344904 Frozen arctic star nectarines is a Commodity code naming a single frozen fruit product line, but state and local opportunities recently posted under this code reveal little solicitation activity for the product itself—instead, the code appears in broader grocery and food service procurements where nectarines are listed as one line item among hundreds of food products. State and local governments buying under this code span school districts, state health and human services agencies, county corrections departments, and Head Start child care programs, all acquiring frozen and fresh produce as part of larger institutional food service contracts. The mix of issuing bodies—Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Bulloch County, Savannah-Chatham County, Henry County, Fulton County), Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida, Douglas County School System in Georgia, Santa Clara County (California), Oregon Department of Corrections, New Jersey Department of Human Services, and Rockwood School District (Missouri)—shows the code active across state departments, county and city school districts, county correction facilities, and child care nonprofits. Geographic spread includes Texas, Georgia, Florida, Missouri, California, Oregon, New Jersey, and Connecticut, with particularly dense activity in Georgia school districts and Texas state agencies.

Representative recent solicitations illustrate the actual work: Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017660 (Big Spring State Hospital groceries, due July 27, 2026) spans 110 line items of proteins, prepared foods, dairy, pantry staples, and beverages with a prior-year spend baseline of $32,226.36; City of Bridgeport Board of Education RFQ for school lunch grocery items (due June 30, 2026) covers 1,100+ line items including frozen products subject to National School Lunch Program and Buy American (51% domestic) requirements; Head Start of Greater Dallas IFB 26-GP for grocery products (due June 24, 2026) seeks three tiers of suppliers for approximately 32,409 cases of frozen foods, produce, and meat for child and adult care food programs with estimated value of $969,460.94; and Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 for El Paso State Supported Living Center food and consumables (due July 13, 2026) references prior-year spend of $1.5 million under NIGP Class 385, 390, 380, and 393. School nutrition procurements dominate the recent posting record—Hancock County (Georgia) fresh produce, Early County (Georgia) food and supplies, City Schools of Decatur (Georgia) frozen foods and grocery, Bulloch County (Georgia) comprehensive grocery and equipment, Savannah-Chatham County (Georgia) fresh produce, Henry County (Georgia) food items across 52 schools, Rockwood School District (Missouri) 900+ grocery line items, Fulton County (Georgia) ice cream and novelties, and Douglas County (Georgia) RFP for food supply and distribution. Pricing is firm for initial contract periods (typically one year) with adjustments tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service reports, Consumer Price Index, or federal minimum wage; all contracts include delivery to school sites or institutional facilities, HACCP and food safety compliance, Buy American provisions where federally funded, and insurance requirements ($500,000 to $2,000,000 general liability). No recent solicitation emphasizes nectarines specifically; the code's presence reflects its classification within broader produce and frozen fruit categories pulled into institutional food procurement at the commodity line-item level.
